No, he's saying that all that matters when moving is the stabaliser and veterancy, and not the accuracy. I didn't know this before, but I guess it means that a T-72B has the same accuracy as a T-80 when moving since both have bad stabalises. The T-80s superiour accuracy stat only matters when it stops.

Now it's confusing because the stabilisator value is not always the same : they are 8 possible moving accuracy with stab (9% 14% 19% 25% 29% 35% 39% 50%) but only 5 stab quality level (bad, normal, good, very good, excellent)That means that 9% or 14% is bad, 19% or 25% is normal, 29% or 35% is good, 39% is very good and 50% is excellent.

Edit: yep Tigga T72B and T80 have both 14% on the move but T72 has 19% static and T80 29%I've gathered all these info in a chart : viewtopic.php?f=11&t=4014

I understood the system (athough didn't realize they were completely unrelated in the end), and understand that vet just gives a 7.5% flat increase per level. I also think that's correct way of doing it more or less, although cheap systems gain huge bonuses per points spent right now which might necessitate a sliding scale at some point to balance that out.

BUT, The problem right now is that moving accuracy is determined by stabilizer, giving you the flat values you've pointed out, and THEN any veterancy bonus you have is applied on top of the determined stabilizer value.

All that really needs to be done to fix this is just move the veterancy bonus to before the stabilizer is taken into account. Therefore, your moving accuracy is always determined by the stabilizer values, but your static accuracy is boosted accordingly.

Like I said before, you can be the best gunner in the world, but that doesn't mean that you can hit a damn thing while moving at 50+ km/h over uneven terrain unless the gun platform is stabilized.

I think this points out a problem though that base vehicle accuracy probably needs to play a role in the system more then it currently does, but that could probably be it's own thread and I'll leave that the hell alone.
